Cool

I used to buy boats or free haul away junks, strip them and then scrap them. Cost me $89 a ton or part of a ton before I got a permit that allowed for the actual weight rather than "any part thereof". Anyways, I've scrapped several dozen. Never lost money on any one of them. You can always find useful items on old boats.. anchors, chocks, rope, porta potties, coolers, you name it, I've probably found it. (Even found a small outboard under a front dodger once)... I've never scrapped a V20.... Renkins, Cruisers, Inc, Bayliners even a few Whalers (with huge holes in them)... If I bring home another boat I'm going to have to find a new wife... and the one I have has a high replacement cost, so I'm pretty much out of that business.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
